Definitions

  • This invention relates to an interpolymer of olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acids or anhydrides and a polymeric surface active agent (or surfactant), having a linear block or random comb configuration which provides a steric stabilizing component to the interpolymer and produces a polymer which is easier to disperse and handle.
  • Such polymers may be homopolymers of unsaturated polymerizable carboxylic acids, such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, maleic acid, maleic anhydride, itaconic acid and the like; or copolymers of said acid or anhydride monomers with (meth)acrylate esters, (meth)acrylamides, olefins, maleic anhydrides, vinyl esters, vinyl ethers, and styrenics; or copolymers with other vinyl or vinylidene monomers.
  • copolymers of these acids are cross-linked with small amounts of cross-linking agents.
  • Surfactants have been employed in the manufacture of carboxyl containing polymers because, in their manufacture, the aggregation of the polymer can interfere with the polymerization reaction by retarding access of the monomer to free radicals and by interfering with the removal of the heat produced by the polymerization. Further, the precipitated polymer forms a slurry in the solvent which becomes extremely thick, resulting in ineffective mixing and fouling on reactor surfaces. In response to these problems, and to increase the usually low total solids to a range of about 8 to 17 weight percent and increase productivity, a variety of surfactants have been employed.
  • U.S.-A-4,375,533 to Park et al. discloses a process for overcoming some of the above problems, in which the polymerization of acrylic acid, and optional comonomers, in an organic media, is characterized by the use of nonionic surface active agents having a hydrophobe to lipophobe balance (HLB) values between 1 and about 10.

  • FR-A-2 270 268 discloses a method for the polymerization of vinyl monomers selected from substituted or unsubstituted styrene, (meth)acrylates, vinylacetates, acrylonitrile or vinylchloride in the presence of a block copolymer of the AB-type, wherein A is the lipophilic and B is the hydrophilic block of the polymer.
  • the present invention resulted from the discovery that in polymerizing olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid or anhydride monomers containing at least one activated carbon to carbon olefinic double bond and at least one carboxyl group, in an organic media, in the presence of free radical forming catalysts and at least one steric stabilizing polymeric surface active agent (also called surfactant), having at least one hydrophilic moiety and at least one hydrophobic moiety and a linear block or random comb configuration, or mixtures thereof or with other surfactants, an interpolymer, useful as a thickening and emulsifying agent, is produced which is easier to handle and to disperse.
  • the carboxylic acid or anhydride will be at least 15% by weight of the interpolymer.
  • the steric stabilizing surfactant appears to become a part of the polymer molecule by a bonding mechanism or by becoming entangled in the polymer as in an interpenetrating network or by some other force which seems to keep it associated with the polymer molecule.
  • the steric stabilizing surfactant is a molecule of surfactant that has a hydrophilic portion which is associated with the polymer and a hydrophobic portion which extends from the polymer to provide steric stability.
  • the resultant polymer possesses unexpectedly better handling and dispersing characteristics, as well as increased thickening efficiency at lower cross linker concentrations.
  • one is able to obtain an improved interpolymer which is easy to disperse and to handle, and yields lower dispersion viscosities, combined with favorable final application properties such as increased thickening efficiency.

  • the carboxylic acid or anhydride preferably comprises at least 40% by weight of the interpolymer.
  • Polymerization of the carboxyl-containing monomers, optionally with other vinylidene comonomers, is usually carried out in the presence of a free radical catalyst in a closed vessel in an inert atmosphere under autogenous or artificially-induced pressure, or in an open vessel in an inert atmosphere optionally under reflux at atmospheric pressure.
  • the temperature of the polymerization may be varied from 0° to 125° C or lower or higher.
  • Polymerization at 25° to 90°C using a free radical catalyst is generally effective in providing monomer to polymer conversions of 75 percent to 100 percent.

  • Other catalysts utilizable are the so-called "redox' type of catalyst and the heavy-metal activated catalyst systems.

  • a steric stabilizer namely, Hypermer® B-239, B-246, or B-261 surfactant
  • the use of a steric stabilizer has little effect on weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the polymer.
  • Mw weight average molecular weight
  • the ability to extract the steric stabilizer decreases as the molecular weight of the steric stabilizer increases, presumably due to interpolymer chain entanglements.
  • This can be corroborated by the fact that it is possible to extract nearly twice as much of the Hypermer® B-261 surfactant out of the post added sample of polyacrylic acid as in the pretreatment case.
  • the fact that not all the Hypermer® B-261 surfactant in the post add case is extractable is explained by the high affinity for hydrogen bonding between the polyethylene oxide blocks in the steric stabilizers and the carboxylic acids on the surface of the resin particles.
  • the strength of the hydrogen bonded complex will be related to the relative length of the polyethylene oxide block, the greater the number of hydrogen bonded sites, the stronger the complex.
  • the molecular weight data on the steric stabilizers also substantiates the molecular weight dependency on extractability.
  • the molecular weight data is very close between the pure and extracted samples, indicating a uniform extraction.
  • the extracted molecular weight is significantly lower than the pure material, with the Hypermer® B-261 surfactant being the lowest. This shows a definite bias for the extractability of the low molecular weight fractions in the steric stabilizers.
  • Vazo® 67 which is azobis(2-methyl butyronitrile), and available from the E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, Inc. was substituted for the di-(2-ethylhexyl)-peroxydicarbonate used in the typical copolymer reaction and an inter-polymer was produced that had a neutralized viscosity of 80,000 mPa ⁇ s (cPs) at 1.0% resin concentration and a clarity of 89%, which are desirable end thickening properties.
  • cPs mPa ⁇ s
  • cyclohexane was employed as the solvent in accordance with the typical co-interpolymer reaction, at crosslinker levels of 0.6 and 0.8 parts per hundred vinylic monomer (phm) and 12% total solids using Hypermer® 2234 surfactant at a dose of 4.0 phm, and an interpolymer was produced which achieved dispersion viscosities of 320 and 15 mPa ⁇ s (cPs) at 2.5% resin concentration, 11,000 and 37,000 mPa ⁇ s (cPs) neutralized viscosity at 0.5% resin concentration, and clarity of 88 and 48%, respectively.
  • Example A was repeated using a different cut of mineral spirits, namely, one having a flash point of 79.4°C (175°F)
  • the resulting polymer at a 0.5% mucilage, had a neutralized viscosity of 43,500 mPa ⁇ s (cPs) which demonstrates that the same results can be achieved using different solvents.
  • the reaction mixture was sparged with dry nitrogen for 15 minutes at room temperature and then the reaction mixture was heated to 72°C with sparging for an additional 15 minutes.
  • PEG polyethylene glycol
  • PEG ethers Brij® brand surfactants
  • Triton® brand surfactants PEG diesters
  • PEG polysorbate esters Teween surfactants
  • fatty acid partial esters of sorbitan Span® surfactants
  • ethylene oxide block copolymers Pluronic® brand surfactants
  • this invention claims an interpolymer which by utilizing a steric stabilizing surfactant in the polymerization of the resin is easy to disperse and/or has increased efficiency. These resins disperse in minutes when added to water, yield lower un-neutralized dispersion viscosities and have no detrimental effects on final application properties.
